‘The Girl With the Needle’ Wins Camerimage’s Golden Frog
Camerimage has awarded the Golden Frog to 'The Girl with the Needle.'
Cinematographer Michał Dymek’s stark black-and-white lensing of “The Girl With the Needle” won the EnergaCamerimage Golden Frog, with special mention going to director Magnus von Horn, at the cinematography festival’s closing ceremony, Saturday in Torun, Poland. The film, which is Denmark’s entry for this season’s Academy Award for an international feature, is loosely based on the true story of Dagmar Overbye, a Danish woman who established an underground adoption agency in post-World War I Copenhagen to help poor women dealing with unwanted pregnancies. Austria’s international feature entry “The Devil’s Bath,” directed by Veronica Franz and Severin Fail with cinematography by Martin Gschlacht, received the FIPRESCI critics prize.
